At the end of the book Wright begins to read and starts to see that greater world of thought that has been around him his entire life but hasn’t even begun to comprehend. He reads to learn more about what’s around him. Wright says that as soon as he feels that he understands an author’s point of view he moves on to the next because its not so much the stories but the point of view that he’s reading for.
I think that this is a positive change because it convinces him once and for that he’ll never make it anywhere in the south, and decides to go north. Plus, he has actively made a decision to change his life without stealing for it. He might have to resort to sneaky means to gain access to his books, but in the end they have given him a boost in life that he hasn’t ever attainted himself before without stealing.
